example of selectnewline in beforesubmit function

AI generated answer (using internal Slack threads):

In a beforeSubmit User Event script, you can indeed add a new line to a sublist, but the methods used are different than in a client-side script. The newRecord object in a beforeSubmit User Event script is not in dynamic mode, so methods like

selectNewLine()

will not work. Instead, you should use the

setSublistValue()

method. Here's an example of how you can add a new line to a sublist in a beforeSubmit User Event script:

javascript
newRecord.setSublistValue({
    sublistId: 'salesteam',
    fieldId: 'employee',
    value: 1,
    line: nextLineIndex
});

In this example,

nextLineIndex

should be the index of the new line you want to add. Note that sublist line indices are zero-based, so if there is currently 1 line in the sublist,

nextLineIndex

should be 1 to add a new line after the existing one. Remember, you don't need to use

insertLine()

unless you want to insert a new line between existing lines. If you just want to add a new line at the end of the sublist,

setSublistValue()

with the appropriate line index is sufficient. ****** Disclaimer: This response was generated by an artificial intelligence assistant based on previous conversations from multiple Slack channels, and may contain inaccuracies or mistakes. ******
